Dear Boy,

Your dad is in the hospital, and I get that. I've been here before, actually. A friend's dad in the hospital, etc. I was a bit closer to him, but...

Nevertheless, am I supposed to stop treating you like a normal person?

I should've just sat silently, waiting for you to say something as you always do.

I'm so bad at this shit.
